Answer Posted / ashok bhatnagar
CTs are used for the measurement of high currents as a
primary sensor. The output of the CT is normally connected
to the relevant ammeter which has very low impendence and
secondary remains almost short circuited. The secondary
current has no control over primary current in a CT. If
secondary is open circuited two things will happen :
1. Due to absence of secondary current no counter magnetic
field is produced and flux in core of CT rises to
saturation level which can change the charateristics of CT
and damage it permanently
2. since number of turns in secondary is very high (1:
1000) for , a very high voltage may be induced in secondary
that can harm the prsons working on the instruments panel.

1. A 380 / 220 V r.m.s. 3-phase 4-wire circuit carries loads of 8 + j8.1 ohm; 4 + j4.1 ohm; and 2 +j2.1 ohmin the three phases respectively. The length of the circuit is 100 m, and the resistivity of the phase conductors is 0.0005 Ω/m. The neutral conductor is of the same size as the phase conductors. a) Select a reference angle 0for the first phase. Then write down the three phase voltages in both polar format and complex number format. b) Make appropriate assumptions, and take temperature effects on resistance is insignificant. Calculate the currents in the three phases. (Note: Determine conductor resistance, and apply Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law) Based on the result, suggest a main switch rating for the circuit. c) Show your preferred direction of neutral current in a diagram, and then determine its value. (Note: Apply superposition principle, and Kirchhoff’s Current Law) Use its magnitude to show that in this circuit, the unbalanced load may increase the voltage drop in some of the phases. (Note: Also observe the common volt drip in neutral) State your assumptions, if there are any. d) Suddenly the neutral wire of the circuit is broken. Estimate the new currents in the first phase, i.e. Phase L1. State your assumptions, if there are any.
